Hi Oli, I recently purchased a 2.2l and am loving it just fine. I also just a few days received my 3" Mangowalk stubby from the States and it fitted on in like 30 secs! Much nicer with the little stub than the long thin stick! Please post some pics when you get the Zed! :lol:

Another vote for the mangowalk stubby here, looks SO much better than the standard one
